Grandview Neighborhood Resources:
Grandview neighbors have resources through the neighborhood and the City of Phoenix that promote community, safety and the opportunity to be involved. These include Grandview Mama’s Group, N.O.W, Community Action Officers and more. Some resources are listed below and more can be found throughout mygrandview.org and at phoenix.gov.
Grandview Neighbors on Watch (N.O.W.)
In October 1993, Proposition 301 adopted the Neighborhood Protection Ordinance, to enhance the safety and quality of life in the City of Phoenix, designing the Neighbors on Watch (N.O.W.) program. N.O.W. is a proven crime deterrent that enlists neighbors in cooperation with police to reduce crime and improve the quality of life in our neighborhoods.
N.O.W. works when we use simple techniques to deter, delay and detect crime. Being aware of criminal activity can help in keeping our neighborhood safe. Promptly reporting all criminal or suspicious activity helps the police assist us in promoting a safe and healthy neighborhood.
See Something. Say Something. Call in suspicious activity to CrimeStop at 602-262-6151. For emergencies, call 9-1-1.
Grandview Community Action Officers:
Community Action Officers are Phoenix Police assigned as liaisons between the community and the Phoenix Police Department who work hard to closely align Phoenix police response to the distinct needs of specific areas. They are a community resource for neighborhoods and local police contacts for N.O.W.
